Homer Simpson Head

Good evening Nuts!

I've had an interesting day. As most of you know, I underwent my second brain surgery within an eight year time span in late October 2006. It was incredibly difficult for me to recover this time and, in fact, I am still recovering to this day. 

I won't bore you with the gruesome details but I am still be treated for Occipital Neuralgia (PROBABLY SPELLED WRONG) This afternoon I had an out-patient "procedure" (I just love that word) called a Right Occipital Neural Block. This delightful process, as I understand it, is where a Surgeon injects a massive dose of steroids, pain killer and something like Cortisone, through your skull and into a muscle within your brain. OUCH!

Actually, I was under General Anesthesia and didn't feel a thing until later. I'm told it will take as long as 3 to 5 days to have results. What I'm hoping is that my head, which now resembles Homer Simpson's, will reduce in size faster than that!

More Later,
